Managing your money

Learning to manage your money will not only allow you to complete your studies owing the least amount possible, it will also help set you up for the future.

It is a reality for many students that despite the student loan and allowance, there may not be much left – if any – after paying your bills. It is important that you identify your costs up front and make a plan to cover any shortfall. This may be through savings, support from family, or a part-time job.

The First-Year Students website has some information to help you get started.
